Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Younger Americans believe the economy has failed them. They see housing prices that feel completely out of reach, college tuition that either blocks opportunity or leaves them buried in debt, and everyday costs that seem to rise faster than their paychecks. Older Americans often dismiss those complaints by pointing out that every...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Consumers are finally pushing back. Families across the country are recognizing the imbalance between sky-high prices and declining quality—and they’re beginning to say enough is enough. For decades, American drivers helped build one of the largest and most powerful auto industries in the world. Now, many believe it’s time for those...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – Christian Briggs and Chris Walker unpack the Iran conflict, surging oil prices, and the global economic shock that follows.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – When geopolitical tensions escalate into war, the immediate reaction is almost always the same: volatility. Markets fall sharply, investors panic, and many people begin asking the same frightening question: Could my retirement account go to zero? The most important takeaway for everyday Americans is simple: short-term market turmoil does not...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – 43% of Americans say they could not cover a $1,000 emergency expense without borrowing money or going into debt. Millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Savings rates remain low. Consumer spending continues to rise, but much of that spending is being fueled by credit rather than financial stability...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – China’s strategy to challenge dollar dominance unfolds through critical minerals, supply chains, food security, and legal warfare. As control of rare earths, coltan, and battery metals reshapes geopolitics, the struggle between Washington and Beijing intensifies—revealing how resources, technology, and global trade networks may determine the balance of power in the coming decades...

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Two personal stories reveal a hard truth: health and medical care are not the same. America’s crisis is cultural as much as structural. Costs, innovation, and policy debates miss the deeper issue—chronic illness and hidden distortions drive consumption, and no financing reform alone can make a nation healthy...

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – President Donald Trump declares that America is back and entering its Golden Years during his State of the Union address. He highlights falling border crossings, easing inflation, rising markets, lower energy prices, and renewed national strength, calling on lawmakers to put American citizens first and secure long-term prosperity...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – President Trump has not taken his defeat well. I would say it was more like a petulant child not getting the sugary cereal he wanted. He not only expressed his displeasure with those on the court who disagreed with him, but he also called them unpatriotic and their decision un-American. Trump completely ignored both the law and the Constitution...

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Supporters of MAGA argue media outrage over Trump tariffs, Epstein controversies, and sensational headlines distracts from policy wins they see reshaping America. From trade and energy to border security and judicial reform, they contend the focus should remain on economic leverage, national strength, and what they call a rising American resurgence...

Unleashed: The Political News Hour with Chris Cordani – Trump’s State of the Union was both a policy argument and a warning about what’s coming next. He argued for lower costs through sanity in energy and governance, for border enforcement as the foundation of citizenship, and for election integrity as the foundation of legitimacy. He also implicitly challenged the country to...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – One of the most striking elements of Florida’s model is the paradox that seems to defy conventional wisdom: taxes are being cut while tax revenues continue to climb. With no state income tax and a continued effort to reduce the overall tax burden, Florida has created an environment where businesses expand, entrepreneurs relocate, and...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – China, Russia, and the BRICS alliance accelerate a global shift away from dollar dominance through alternative banking systems, gold accumulation, and digital settlement networks.

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Some argue that allowing Social Security to fail — or at least fundamentally transform — could open the door to better solutions. While the idea is controversial, it raises important questions about sustainability, personal responsibility, and the role of government in providing retirement income. If the program’s struggles force a national conversation, it may...

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie leads the Republican Liberty Caucus Liberty Scores, standing alone above 100 as GOP lawmakers face criticism over spending and fiscal restraint.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – America faces rising political violence, economic strain, and global instability as truth erodes and institutions fracture.

Viewpoint This Sunday with Malcolm Out Loud – SCOTUS rules against Trump's global tariffs. Economic Strategist Christian Briggs and Constitutional Scholar Paul Engel in a fiery discussion on the Court and the Executive Branch. The US and Israel are edging closer to an attack on Iran. Middle East Expert IQ al-Rassooli and Intel Analyst Ilana Freedman say an attack appears imminent that will change...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – We’re in the middle of another partial federal government shutdown because some people in Washington, D.C. would rather play politics and take time away than do their jobs. New York City hired a socialist mayor who thinks our federal immigration laws should follow Islamic law, and that a schizophrenic, knife-wielding person who attacks...

The National Security Hour with LTC Sargis Sangari – A stadium is not a charity. It is private capital and local jobs. If policy chases headline projects for political reasons while choking everyday taxpayers, that signals weakness. Federal funding can be pulled when states fail basic compliance. That can cost billions in transit, childcare, and infrastructure. Credit agencies warn that thin margins and...

The Tenpenny Files – America runs on speed and assumption, not resilience. Drew Miller examines fragile supply chains, urban dependence, and habits shaped by convenience. He reveals how quiet pressure builds beneath normal routines and why preparedness, redundancy, and personal agency shift risk away from centralized systems toward households prepared to endure disruption independently...

The National Security Hour with Major Fred Galvin – While Russia wages war in Europe and China expands its industrial and military dominance, Western leaders are locked in a battle over borders, identity, energy policy, and escalation strategy. How decades of offshoring America’s manufacturing base have hollowed out our defense industrial strength. Why mass migration is no longer just a...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – China, Russia, and the expanding BRICS alliance move to challenge dollar dominance through alternative payment systems, gold accumulation, and digital settlement platforms.

The Nurses Report on America Out Loud with Kimberly Overton, BSN, RN, BC-FMP – Kimberly interviews entrepreneur Greg Williams about building fundable businesses, reducing financial vulnerability, and creating independence through structure, corporate credit, and asset protection. The conversation challenges job security myths while offering practical strategies for long term resilience and sustainable entrepreneurial freedom...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The only reason the federal government hasn’t declared bankruptcy already is that countries keep pumping money into the government, praying that it won’t collapse until after they’re gone. I don’t know about you, but that doesn’t sound like they’re meeting their fiduciary responsibilities. If you want to know why fiscal mismanagement in the federal government is so...

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Political spectacle drowns out the hard work of governing as leaders trade answers for performances. Transparency fades, victims are sidelined, and economic realities are reduced to campaign slogans. From immigration and education to alliances abroad, competence is tested daily. Accountability, evidence, and civic responsibility must replace theater before trust erodes further...

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Voters care less about political scandal and more about whether they can afford daily life. Rising prices, job security, and economic confidence continue to shape political behavior, while media fixation on controversy fails to resonate with Americans focused on kitchen-table issues that directly impact their financial stability and future choices...

The Tenpenny Files – The American family farm disappears quietly each year, reshaping food, communities, and national security. Through lived experience and hard data, Brian Reisinger reveals how consolidation, policy, and rising costs trap farmers between survival and collapse. As farms vanish, food systems grow fragile, ownership concentrates, and families face a narrowing path forward...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Two states offer a clear warning about what happens when government greed drives policy. California’s tax ambitions push businesses and jobs away, while New York demands national funding for long-ignored infrastructure. Both cases reveal how short-term political gain, misuse of public money, and ideological priorities undermine economic stability and public trust...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Is the Trump administration intentionally allowing—or even encouraging—the dollar to weaken? If true, it would represent a high-risk, high-reward economic strategy. A weaker dollar can reduce the real value of U.S. debt over time, making it easier to pay down trillions in obligations. Inflation, while painful for consumers, also erodes debt in...

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Voters distrust Congress yet cling to familiar faces. A simple test reveals who truly defends constitutional limits, fiscal restraint, and civil liberties. Real independence shows up in tough votes, not loud rhetoric. Accountability begins locally, with citizens demanding courage, principle, and respect for liberty at the ballot box...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – For years, Americans have paid the highest drug prices on the planet—sometimes more than 1,000 percent higher than what patients pay in other developed nations for the exact same medications. TrumpRx.gov represents an aggressive attempt to bring transparency and accountability to a system long dominated by pharmaceutical giants...

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – I trace a question my father never resolved: how fascism takes hold without people noticing. Drawing on history, economics, and my own military experience, I argue that America did not narrowly avoid fascism, but absorbed it quietly through bureaucracy, centralized planning, and the illusion of democratic control long before most were willing to see it...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – When the basics fail—trash removal, emergency response, protection from the cold—ideology collapses under its own weight. The backlash has been swift and loud. Residents who once championed Mamdani’s vision are now openly questioning it. Protesters have gathered outside his residence. Conditions that longtime New Yorkers say are the worst they’ve ever seen...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – I break down the real war shaping global power: the race for quantum supremacy. This battle isn’t fought in elections or headlines, but in labs, supply chains, and mineral reserves. Whoever controls quantum, rare earths, and strategic metals controls finance, defense, and sovereignty. The future isn’t just digital—it’s physical, and America must act now...

The Tenpenny Files – I trace food independence to soil most people are taught to ignore. What I witness on damaged land exposes how biological systems collapse under chemicals, denial, and neglect. By restoring living soil instead of removing it, I see toxins disappear, animals recover, and communities regain control outside failing institutional systems...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Declaring herself “probably Trump’s number one fan,” Minaj refused to retreat. Instead, she expanded her support, tying her endorsement directly to her own life story. Raised in deep poverty in an unstable home, Minaj said that access to something like a Trump Account could have fundamentally altered her future. Financial education, early investment, and...

The Dean’s List with Host Dean Bowen – American Federation for Children CEO Tommy Schultz explains how a new federal scholarship tax credit could expand school choice nationwide. Beginning in 2027, the policy invites private investment to fund K-12 education, empower families, and reshape education reform, while supporters race to implement it effectively before political windows...

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Markets across the West are said to be failing, but the problem is not excess freedom. It is the absence of it. This episode examines how political and corporate power fuse to distort competition, suppress innovation, and replace real markets with managed systems that reward compliance over competence while eroding accountability...

Viewpoint This Sunday with Malcolm Out Loud – Bessent projects a "non-inflationary boom" for the US economy in 2026, driven by Trump-era tax cuts, deregulation, and private-sector momentum. Economist Harry Dent will explain the pros and cons driving the US economy. About the rioting in Minnesota, it’s not an outlier; it is a preview… says Todd Royal. David Wayne discusses the fraud in Minnesota...

Unleashed! The Political News Hour with Mayor Deb – Why should anyone listen to these “unelected technocrats, the hedge-fund vampires, the NGO grifters, the media courtesans” adorned in cashmere sweaters and bespoke suits? For far too long, it seems as though the world has been controlled, by way of fear instilled upon humanity, by the power-drunk elite...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Florida’s economic momentum stands in sharp contrast to states like New York and California, where businesses continue to flee under the weight of high taxes, aggressive regulations, and political hostility toward wealth creation. While those states wrestle with shrinking tax bases and corporate exits, Florida’s economy continues to expand...

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Congressional budget delays weaken emergency preparedness, threaten FEMA response, and leave communities vulnerable during crises. Political theater replaces stewardship as agencies are held hostage to ideological fights. Economic gains and civic institutions are put at risk while education drifts from free inquiry. The piece calls citizens to vote, serve locally, defend liberty, and restore responsibility in...

On the Record with Christian Briggs – Who wins the coming tariff war—Europe, Latin America, or the U.S.? Are fears of inflation—or even hyperinflation by 2026—legitimate warnings or elite-driven panic? It’s a roadmap to what comes next in the global power struggle—and a wake-up call for anyone still mistaking Trump’s moves for impulsive noise. The next move is already in motion. Don’t blink...

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Clayton J. Baker – The GENIUS Act was already passed into law on July 18, 2025. Digitization of your cash is imminent. All payment stablecoins now fall under Federal Reserve oversight. The CLARITY ACT is even worse. It digitizes all assets. Food. Fuel. Stocks. Bonds. Retirement accounts. Property. Communist China is the model...

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – Trump keeps saying America is “hot” right now, and critics roll their eyes. But when you step back and look at the data, it’s hard to argue with the results. Strong GDP growth. Profitable companies. Workers receiving tangible rewards. That’s not spin—that’s evidence. But pretending America is failing when the economy is expanding faster than expected doesn’t help anyone...

The National Security Hour with Col. Mike and Dr. Mike – On Iran, Professor Dorsey noted that Trump’s foreign-policy behavior has been – as it was in Venezuela – on-again (ready for war) and off -again (marking time until war). Professor Dorsey said this is a very dangerous way to treat the Iranian government. That government is fully aware of the force the US can bring to bear on the...

The Other Side of the Story with Tom Harris and Todd Royal – California families face soaring electricity costs as millions struggle to pay energy bills. Jason Isaac explains how policy choices prioritize symbolism over reliability, driving energy poverty.

Dr. Li-Meng Yan w/ The Voice of Dr. Yan – China’s economic footprint is already massive. Chinese companies dominate solar inverter manufacturing and ship hardware across the globe. Independent technical reviews found undocumented communication modules inside some inverters and batteries. Those are not benign faults. They are potential backdoors that can be activated remotely to disrupt...
